Fun With MHS!

[GregG124]

So as a lot of you know, I have a Liberator, an Arbiter, and an Archon V2.1. Along with a spare Arbiter Emitter and Neck Piece (Grenade grip). Today, I had some fun with the MHS system.

Firstly, here's a look at ALL my parts (dissasembled as much as possible without cutting wires):

I decided to first, put the Arbiter's pommel (the one with the D-Ring) and add it to the Archon along with an Arbiter Emitter (no neck) it made for a short saber that would be great for one handed combat!

Next, I decided to take the pommel, neck, and emitter of the Archon V2.1 and add it to the body and grenade grip of the arbiter whilst lining the lower grip with O-Rings for more of the Black and Silver contrast:

PROS AND CONS:

The pros is that both combos look amazing! They have a lot of stylistic appeal and I enjoyed looking at them.

The cons is that nothing fits quite right besides the pommels. The Archon v2.1 neck threads stick out just a bit from the neck of the Arbiter with the black piece resting on the MLS unit. I figured that it wouldn't be wise to leave it configured like that with the stress on the LED.

On the Archon Body, the threads on the Arbiter emitter are a bit shorter than that of the black neck piece, therefore, there was a little bit of space left open between the emitter and the LED. Obviously a blade would fix that so it's not a big deal.

Also, O-Rings are simply not secure on the lower half of the Arbiter body unless I got 4 at a time and lined them up inside the wider grooves.

Anyway, I love the MHS system and I loved coming up with these combinations. Let me know what you think!

Love this as well. With a few parts I got from TCSS and the ones from US, my 3yo can mash up her saber in a bunch of fun and cool (and uncool as well as unwieldy) ways. Nice mash up! I'll try and post something when I can.

So here are how things started off.. or ended up depending on how you look at it.

My stunt saber is what ever is laying around for my catalyst main body.



My main:



Kids main:



The parts: Wired the led so I can use it in a stunt as one color (red via resistor) or in another saber with sound and foc (blue with red foc).




Stunt came out like this:



Slight mod for my main:



The kids turned out pretty mean looking:





Fun with soundfonts!

I love it Calculon!

Is kid's saber a modded Arbiter? I quite like that.

Thank you Greg,  excellent post! Right down my alley.

The Arbiter has not had any extra machining done. I just added a switch, rewired some stuff, rgb led, JSTs, the rings and the choke.

Really want the Flamberge CE blade holder but... $$$. I think with the right choke and that blade holder... amazing stuff could be done.
